¶ The fyrst Chapter.
¶ Of the destruccyon of Samaria because of
theyr Idolatrye.
A Thys is the worde of the Lorde, þt;
came vnto Micheas þe; Morastite,
&ibar; the dayes of note Iothan note Ahas
&abar;d note Iehezekiah kynges of Iuda:
whych was shewed hym vpon Samaria ∧
Ierusal&ebar;. noteHeare al ye people, marcke this
well O earth and all that therin is. Yee, þe;
Lorde God hym selfe be wytnesse amonge
you euen the Lord fr&obar; his holy temple. For
why? note beholde, þe; Lorde shall go out of his
place, ∧ come downe, ∧ treade vpon the hye
thynges of the earth. The mo&ubar;taynes shall
c&obar;sume vnder him, ∧ the valleyes shal cleue
asunder: lyke as waxe c&obar;sumeth at the fyre,
∧ as the waters runne downwarde. And all
thys shalbe for the wyckednesse of Iacob.
and the synnes of the house of Israel.
But what is the wyckednesse of Iacob?
Is not note Samaria? Whych are the hye places
of Iuda?
B Is not note Ierusalem? Therfore
I shall make Samaria an heape of stones &ibar;
the felde, to laye aboute the vyneyarde: her
stones shall I cast into the valley, and discouer
her foundacyons. All her Images shall
be broken downe ∧ all her garmentes shall
be brent in the fyre: yee, all her Idols will I
destroye: for why? note they are gathered out
of þe; hyre of an whore, ∧ &ibar;to an whores hyre
shall they be turned agayne. Wherfore I
will mourne ∧ make lamentaci&obar;, bare ∧ naked
will I go: I must mourne lyke the dragons,
and take sorowe as the Estriches: for
theyr wounde is past remedy:
C And why? it
is come into Iuda, ∧ hath touched the porte
of my people at Ierusalen alredy. noteWepe
not, lest they at Geth perceaue it.
Thou at Bataphra, welter thy selfe in þe;
dust ∧ asshes. Thou þt; dwellest at Sephyr,
get the hence with shame. The proude shall
boost nomore for very sorowe: and why? her
neyghboure shal take fr&obar; her what she hath
The rebellyous cytie hopeth, þt; it shall not
be so euell: but for all þt;, the plage shall come
from the Lorde, euen into the porte of Ierusal&ebar;,
The greate noyse of þe; charettes shall
feare th&ebar;, that dwell at note Lachys, which is
an occasyon of the synne of the daughter of
Syon, for in the came vp the wyckednesses
of Israel.
D Yee, she sent her coursers into the
lande of Geth.
The houses of lyes will dysceaue þe; kynges
of Israel. And as for þe; (O thou þt; dwellest
at Morassa) I shal bring a possessioner
vpon þe;, ∧ the plage of Israel shal reach vnto
Odolla. Make the balde, ∧ shaue the, because
of thy tender chyldren: Make the cleane
balde as an Aegle, for they shalbe caryed
awaye captiue from the.
